help !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rstdwright]

I am Dion a buddies jeep this weekend putting a ford 60 hp and putting full hydro steering but the proublem we are having is the cylinder is centered up. And its to long to fit between the axle and Tie rod and clear the chunk and i cant slide it back far en ought toward the knuckle cause it will get in the way of the steering and its still not enough room to clear if y'all could post some pics or something to help we have looked at it in alot of diff ways and I'm sure there is a way we are just not seeing it

Throw up some pictures of the setup as it is, then with some of the options that you are attempting.

I think a 60 only needs a 8 in long ram. How long you trying to put in?

 

[Neal3000]

Don't center it up

 

[rstdwright]

I am using a 2x8 cylinder and i am centering the stroke of the cylinder up so ill have four inches of steering each way ill post some pics later on in the day

I put the same ram on a HPD44, mounted it to the link truss, just to the left of the diff, above the tie rod.

Stupid question. But you are trying to put it on the long side aren't you?

I did my double ended el-cheapo like this, the ram mount unbolts so you can pull the cover.

 

[ridered3]

Did ya get the steering sorted out?

 

[rstdwright]

Na not yet i been workin or really busy but you running the cylinder shaft through the leaf springs does it get into the frame any when you flex out

 

[rstdwright]

Could you send me a pic of your ram mount that way looks like the better of the ways i seen as long as it dont get pinched between the frame and leafs

No hitting issues on my set up

2x2x.250 tube for riser, 2 pieces of angle welded to mount plate to mount the cylinder so it can be removed

Re: Re: help !!!!!!!!!!!!!

No problem, I ran the same set up on my D44, I had a hard time figuring out how I wanted to mount it with leafs when I first did it, Ranger11 on here, and some beer helped me get it sorted. If you need and measurements or what ever give me a shout.
